Igumbi elifihliwe ngaphakathi kwekhanda lakho! Ake sixoxe nge-Sphenoid Sinus.

Cishe uke wezwa ngama-sinuses, akunjalo? Cishe uke waba nenkinga encane ngawo. Kodwa bewazi ukuthi ngaphakathi kwamakhanda ethu, noma ngaphakathi kwama-skulls ethu, kunezimbobo eziningana ezincane ezigcwele umoya? Yilokho esikubiza ngokwezokwelapha ngokuthi ama-paranasal sinuses. Empilweni yansuku zonke, simane siwabize ngokuthi 'ama-sinuses.' Namuhla, sizokhuluma ngesinye salezi zifo, 'i-sphenoid sinus,' etholakala endaweni ekhethekile, ejulile.

Ngakho-ke, le sinus ye-sphenoid isenzelani thina?

Kalula nje, ama-sinuses akho e-sphenoid ayizimbobo ezimbili ezigcwele umoya ngaphakathi kwekhanda lakho. Ayingxenye yesistimu yama-sinuses ezungeze ikhala lethu. Kunezinhlobo ezine zama-sinuses e-paranasal:

• Ama-sinuses angaphambili ebunzini
• Ama-sinuses e-ethmoid, atholakala phakathi kwamehlo.
• Namuhla sikhuluma ngama -sinuses e-sphenoid.
• Nezinsini ze-maxillary emathanjeni ezihlathini.

Omunye wemisebenzi eyinhloko ye-sphenoid sinus ukukhiqiza i-mucus . Le mucus ibamba amagciwane, izinhlayiya zothuli, kanye nezinto ezibangela ukungezwani komzimba ezingena ekhaleni lapho siphefumula bese zisusa ekhaleni. Ngamanye amazwi, le mucus isiza ukugcina imigudu yethu yempumulo ihlanzekile. Ngaphezu kwalokho, le mucus isiza futhi ukugcina ulwelwesi lwemigudu yethu yempumulo lufudumele, lumanzi, futhi lunempilo. Ngale ndlela, i-sphenoid sinus isiza futhi ekumanziseni nasekupholiseni umoya esiwuphefumulayo bese siwuthumela emaphashini.

Odokotela basacwaninga ngeminye imisebenzi ye-sphenoid sinus. Eminye yemisebenzi engaba khona esitholakale kuze kube manje ihlanganisa:

• Ukunciphisa isisindo sekhanda: Njengoba i-sphenoid sinus iyimbobo engaphakathi kwethambo, kukholelwa ukuthi inciphisa isisindo sekhanda ngezinga elithile.
• Ukunikeza isivikelo ezingozini zekhanda: Njenge-'shock absorber' emotweni, uma ikhanda lishaya okuthile, lezi zimbobo zomoya zingasiza ekumunceni okunye kokushayisana futhi zivimbele ugebhezi ukuthi lungaphuki.
• Ukusiza ekwakheni umsindo wezwi lethu: Njengoba nje umsindo usakazeka ekamelweni elingenalutho, kucatshangwa ukuthi lezi zimbobo ze-sinus nazo zinegalelo emsindweni oyingqayizivele wezwi lethu ngoba umsindo uyazwakala kulezi zindawo ezigcwele umoya.

Ikuphi i-Sphenoid Sinus?

Umbuzo obaluleke kakhulu. I-sphenoid sinus yakho itholakala ethanjeni le-sphenoid.Ngaphakathi kwethambo elibizwa ngokuthi i-sphenoid. Leli yithambo elimise okwebhabhathane. Litholakala phakathi kwamathambo obuso bethu namathambo ajule kakhulu ekhanda. Uma sikhuluma iqiniso, i-sphenoid sinus itholakala ngemuva kwengxenye ephezulu yekhala, eduze nomugqa ophakathi wekhanda lethu. Kuwo wonke lawa ma-sinuses, i-sphenoid sinus yakho yileyo etholakala kude kakhulu ekhanda lakho, okusho ukuthi itholakala ngokujule kakhulu.

Indawo ye-sphenoid sinus ibaluleke kakhulu ngoba kunezakhiwo eziningana ezibaluleke kakhulu ezizungezile. Isibonelo:

• Umthambo we-carotid wangaphakathi: Lona umthambo wegazi oyinhloko ohlinzeka ngegazi ebuchosheni bethu.
• Inzwa yokubona: Le nzwa, ebalulekile ekuboneni kwethu, ixhumana phakathi kweso nobuchopho.
• Indlala ye-pituitary: Lena yindlala encane kodwa enamandla kakhulu ekhiqiza ama-hormone amaningi alawula imisebenzi eyahlukahlukene emzimbeni wethu.

Kuyamangalisa ukuthi odokotela abahlinzayo basebenzisa kanjani lesi sinus!

Ubuwazi ukuthi ngezinye izikhathi odokotela abahlinzayo badlula ku-sphenoid sinus ukuze basuse izinhlobo ezithile zezimila ze-pituitary? Lokhu kuhlinzwa kubizwa ngokuthi ukuhlinzwa kwe-transsphenoidal . Okwenzekayo lapha ukuthi udokotela ohlinzayo ufaka ikhamera encane (i-endoscope) ngekhala, angene ku-sphenoid sinus, bese efika ku-pituitary gland. Enye yezinzuzo ezinkulu zale ndlela ukuthi lezi zimila zingasuswa ngaphandle kokwenza noma yikuphi ukusikwa ebusweni noma ekhanda. Akumangalisi yini?

Iyini isakhiwo se-sphenoid sinus?

Sinezimbobo ezimbili ze-sphenoid sinus: i-sphenoid sinus yesobunxele kanye ne-sphenoid sinus yesokudla. Lezi ezimbili zihlukaniswe udonga oluncane olunamathambo phakathi. Kodwa-ke, lolu donga aluhambi ngqo phakathi futhi luhlukanisa ama-sinuses amabili ngokulinganayo. Lokhu kusho ukuthi ama-sinuses akho e-sphenoid kwesobunxele nakwesokudla awazona izithombe zesibuko zomunye nomunye. Elinye lingaba likhulu kunelinye, noma lingabunjwa ngendlela ehlukile. Ubukhulu bawo buyahlukahluka kuye ngobudala, ubulili, kanye nohlanga.

I-mucus ekhiqizwa yi-sphenoid sinus iphuma iye esikhaleni esibizwa ngokuthi 'i-sphenoethmoidal recess' . Lesi sakhiwo sitholakala ngaphakathi kwesinye isakhiwo esibizwa ngokuthi 'i-superior meatus' . Lesi sitholakala ngemuva kwekhala lethu, phambi nje kwe-sphenoid sinus. Ingxenye ye-ethmoid sinus yethu nayo iphuma iye kulesi sikhala.

Yiziphi izifo ezivamile ezithinta i-sphenoid sinus?

Uma amagciwane noma izinto ezibangela ukungezwani komzimba zingena futhi zivaleleke ngaphakathi kwe-sphenoid sinus yethu, kuvela ukuvuvukala., okusho ukuthi ukuvuvukala kwezicubu kungenzeka. Lapho i-sphenoid sinus ivuvukala ngale ndlela, siyibiza ngokuthi 'i-sphenoid sinusitis' . Lokhu kuvuvukala kungavimba izindlela ze-sinus, kuvumele amagciwane ukuthi abambeke ngaphakathi futhi kubangele ukutheleleka. Ngokuvamile, lapho i-sphenoid sinus itheleleka, nezinye izinhlungu, njenge-ethmoid kanye ne-frontal sinus eziseduze nayo, nazo ziyahileleka.

Kodwa-ke, akuvamile ukuthi i-sphenoid sinus itheleleke yodwa. Kodwa akunakwenzeka. Esikhathini esiningi, ukutheleleka kwe-sphenoid sinus kubangelwa amagciwane . Akuvamile kakhulu, ukutheleleka kungabangelwa yisikhunta. Ukutheleleka kwamagciwane kwe-sphenoid sinus okubangelwa amagciwane kungaba yingozi uma kungelashwa. Ngoba, njengoba sesixoxile kakade, le sinus iseduze kakhulu nobuchopho bethu kanye nezinzwa zethu zokubona.

Okubalulekile: Uma ukutheleleka ku-sphenoid sinus kungelashwa kahle, kungasakazeka futhi kubangele izimo ezibucayi ezifana nalezi:

* Ithumba lobuchopho

* Izinzwa ze-cranial ezonakele

* I-Meningitis - Lokhu ukutheleleka kwezicubu ezizungeze ubuchopho nomgogodla.

Ngaphandle kwalokhu, izimila ezingenabungozi, ezingaphambi komdlavuza, kanye nezinomdlavuza nazo zingakhula ku-sphenoid sinus. Kodwa-ke, lezi nazo azivamile.

Yiziphi izimpawu zokuthi kukhona okungahambi kahle?

Ngenxa yokuthi i-sphenoid sinus itholakala ekujuleni kogebhezi lwethu, ingase ingabonakali izimpawu zokutheleleka okuvamile kwe-sinus, njengokuminyana kwamakhala kanye nekhala eligobhozayo. Okulandelayo yizimpawu ezivame kakhulu zokutheleleka kwe-sphenoid sinus, ukuvuvukala, noma isimila:

• Ukubona izinto ezimbili ngesikhathi esisodwa (i-Diplopia)
• Ubuhlungu noma ukuba ndikindiki kobuso (indawo yobuhlungu iyahlukahluka kuye ngokuthi inzwa ye-cranial ithintekile)
• Ikhanda elibuhlungu: Lolu uphawu oluvame kakhulu. Ngezinye izikhathi kungaba ubuhlungu obukhulu phezulu ekhanda, emhlane, noma eduze kwamehlo.
• Ukuzwela ukukhanya, okusho ukuthi amehlo azizwa engakhululekile ukubuka ukukhanya (i-Photophobia)
• Ukulahlekelwa umbono okunciphile noma okuphelele

Uma unesinye noma ngaphezulu salezi zimpawu, kubaluleke kakhulu ukufuna iseluleko sezokwelapha ngokushesha.

Siyigcina kanjani i-sphenoid sinus iphilile?

Izinyathelo ezifanayo esivame ukuzithatha ukuze sizivikele emakhazeni kanye nokungezwani komzimba nazo ziyasiza ekuvikeleni i-sphenoid sinus.

• Izinto ezifana nokulala ngokwanele, ukuzivocavoca njalo, nokudla ukudla okunempilo kunganciphisa ingozi yokuthola izifo.
• Ukugeza izandla zakho kahle nokuhlala kude nabantu abagulayo nakho kuyasiza.

Uma uzizwa sengathi ama-sinuses akho e-sphenoid avaliwe, kunezinto ezimbalwa ongazenza wena ukuze uwasuse:

• Ukunisela impumulo: Ukuhlanza ingaphakathi lempumulo ngento efana namanzi anosawoti kungasiza ekususeni noma yikuphi ukuvaleka.
